Utter Hastiness!

Utter Hastiness!
Perception of the universe
I’m aware of,
Images surface on the time tides
fatality is their destiny;
There’s no today and day after
The span of life is simply an instant
Countless metaphors rise to scatter
The loneliness of this symbol of infinity
Not only emergence to remain
Utter hastiness wins through here
each day the photo change in the tavern
spirit doesn’t even breathe life’s sip
The death angel wipes out life’s sip
What an eerie hastiness, every instant
gulp down the other instant
Dust and water blended to shape things
If the creation is to perish their, destiny
O, The Creator!
Don’t you loathe to see
Your creation perish into dust!

My beloved, don’t ask me for love shared before
I assumed that life’s brilliant as long as you’re there
Thy gloom is there; why bother of the world
Your beauty is the sustenance of splendor of the world
There’s no reality of anything other than your divine eyes
Should you be with me, fate would turn to joy
It occurs not, was my assumption
Countless of sufferings there besides love
Endless of delights there than lover’s reunion
Dark magic effects extended to eras
Draped in silk and velvet and brocade and satin
Vanity and timidity for sale hither and thither
Soaked in the dust and wet in blood hearts
Bodies suffering from diseases and infection
The mucus flowing of ulcers and sore infection
My eyes detain that sight too; what can I do
Thy loveliness is charismatic; but what to do
…………………………………………………………..
مجھ سے پہلی سی محبت مری محبوب نہ مانگ
میں نے سمجھا تھا کہ تو ہے تو درخشاں ہے حیات
تیرا غم ہے تو غمِ دہر کا جھگڑا کیا ہے
تیری صورت سے ہے عالم میں بہاروں کو ثبات
تیری آنکھوں کے سوا دنیا میں رکھا کیا ہے؟
تو جو مل جائے تو تقدیر نگوں ہو جائے
یوں نہ تھا، میں نے فقط چاہا تھا یوں ہو جائے
اور بھی دکھ ہیں زمانے میں محبت کے سوا
راحتیں اور بھی ہیں وصل کی راحت کے سوا
ان گنت صدیوں کے تاریک بہیمانہ طلسم
ریشم و اطلس و کمخاب میں بُنوائے ہوئے
جابجا بکتے ہوئے کوچہ و بازار میں جسم
خاک میں لتھڑے ہوئے خون میں نہلائے ہوئے
جسم نکلے ہوئے امراض کے تنوروں سے
پیپ بہتی ہوئی گلتے ہوئے ناسوروں سے
لوٹ جاتی ہے ادھر کو بھی نظر کیا کیجے
اب بھی دلکش ہے ترا حسن مگر کیا کیجے
اور بھی دکھ ہیں زمانے میں میں محبت کے سوا
راحتیں او ربھی ہیں وصل کی راحت کے سوا
مجھ سے پہلی سی محبت مری محبوب نہ مانگ
– فیض احمد فیض
I can’t defy saying
what comes to my lips,
But, if I speak the truth,
chaos created.
It saves time if I lie,
but its a deceit
My heart dislikes both
the truth and deceit
I’m afraid of both,
here and hereafter
I can’t defy saying what comes to my lips
Go slowly;
darkness moves away bit by bit,
Search thy light
within yourself bit by bit,
Why do people search for it
outside their spirit?
I can’t defy saying what comes to my lips
Whoever attained with
truth from Deity?
He gains knowledge of
his soul and his Deity!
He is thus the blessed soul
of the shrine of peace
Once elevated is never
broken down into pieces;
I can’t defy saying what comes to my lips
To be courteous
is verily essential
A norm that all follows
is essential
Deity is in every
human beings we know
If He is in me
then why not in you?
Sometimes Deity is seen,
at times hidden
I can’t defy saying what comes to my lips!
When Bullah Shah’s blessing
is with me
Without him,
there could none else be
Him ignoring of me
is but anguish and pain
My vision’s unable to foresee that pain
I can’t defy saying what comes to my lip

If wind asks my whereabouts!

If wind asks my whereabouts!
Slowly then
Open every door
Of my silent home,
Saying; by all means;
Come and see
I’m there in everything
In my home!
And all my thoughts
Are buried within me!
Let’s create love——-

Let’s create love——-
Look at the sky,
The secret holder of my beautiful memories;
How wrapped in the starry veil
Oblivious to her in deep slumber,
And —-this moon
How peacefully resting on night’s bosom
Half dazed, look so serene and tranquil
Come—–
Let’s say, be it—!
And create love
A scene

Wrapped in night’s covering
I,
Lay silently;
Sadness peeping through window,
A hazy dream dribbling in eyes
Lonesomeness moves in silence,
Sleep is restless of silence
And the Moon,
Tired of the setting around
Resting in the gray cloud…

On the corner of the lane
In ashen grim evening
The freezing wind stopped
For a moment—-
Glanced at the shivering children
Singing them the frosty lullaby
Covered them with snow quilt
And you!
You’re so weird
Call them snow-angels

On the stairway of December

On the stairway of December
When winter wearily and slowly
Steps on the stairs of December
A figure wrapped in fog and
Lonesomeness,
asks a black stone to get up.
Why wait lie there
In gloominess and UN noticed.
Accept the truth that
No rain can wash the mayhem of
Misfortune

Do you know—–?

The velvet touch of
Your half-finished love
When quivers on my palms
Even today
The lines on my palm disrupt;
Silently then whisper to me,
Half finished, love, partial dreams
Uncompleted delights are
The spheres of agony
Around which bodies get sapped
Moving around them
Do you know why?
It’s in their fate to do so
……
Do you know—–?
